Pinot Nero, or Pinot Noir as it is more commonly known, is one of Alto Adige’s secret weapons—and few producers capture its elegance and charm with the precision of Erste & Neue. This is consistently enchanting and vivacious, blending tart red fruit and spice in equal measure.

Climate
The winter months were mainly sunny but very cold. In spring the temperature was slow to rise, and that delayed the vegetative development of the vines. This was only partly compensated by the warm and sunny start to the summer, while the weather in July and August was very varied. The grape harvest accordingly began relatively late, on September 9. The wet September was an organizational problem for our wine growers, but ultimately a very good harvest was completed on October 26.
